Clearly, many of the google reviews of Per Wickstrom's rehabs are fake. When checking a reviewer's history it's common to see their only other reviews are for other Wickstrom rehabs. Of course, they're all favorable. Nothing new or surprising here. What's interesting is that some of those reviewers also wrote similar reviews for Elevate Addiction Services. For example, one particular reviewer wrote reviews for four of Wickstrom's Michigan rehabs, one for Elevate Addiction Services in California, and none for any other business. Just thought this link between two similar rehab systems was worth noting.

Someone goes to rehab an awful lot!

The latest update changed all the location Total Occupancy numbers to 49, the old number for the whole license. I'm not sure what it means, but the code that's converting from the main db to the CHHS one is probably being tweaked.

The physicians listed are Lance Thompson, Charles Smith and Megan Charles. No physician's license is found for Lance Thompson or Megan Charles in CA. Not surprisingly, there are several listings for the common name of Charles Smith. Nice looking bunch of model types on the website.

Since Narconon Fresh Start doesn't seem to have rehab licenses for its Huntington Harbor House (possibly closed) and Sunshine Summit Lodge (definitely still open) locations, is it possible that they've found some loophole in California to avoid the need for one?

As expected, Sunshine Summit Lodge joined Huntington Harbor House down the license crapper of non-existence. Expired since April and now gone from the CHHS system.

ScienceDoc posted something on The Bunker probably July 2nd (I was camping) that definitely seemed like they were folding that tent.

I guess they realized that the Narconon system doesn't work nad is dangerous, Hubbard was a fraud, a sex and drugs corporate culture were only some of their problems, and they've closed up, quit Scientology, and gone off to do something better with their lives.
